An excellent choice for aspiring guitarists to work on their chops without killing their bank account.

The easy-to-afford dreadnought Epiphone PR-150 is the perfect instrument to get started on. It has classic looks, great tone, and is made to be road tough. Like all worthy acoustic guitars, it begins and ends with tonewoods, and the PR-150 Epiphone chose a select spruce top and mahogany body for a classic sound that's balanced, clear, and will only get better with age and lots of playing. The rosewood bridge and synthetic bone saddle are a perfect match for the resonant profile of the select spruce top. The vintage-style soundhole is supported by a tortoiseshell-style pickguard with the '60s era "E" logo. The SlipTaper 25.5" scale mahogany neck has a rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays, a 12" radius, a 1.68" nut, premium die-cast 14:1 tuners, and the classic '60s era Sloped Dovewing headstock. The Epiphone's all-nickel hardware will last as long as you play the guitar and the PR-150 comes in two color finishes, Natural (NA) and Vintage Sunburst (VS). Choose the finish you want in the drop down menu above.

Purchased this guitar to have a guitar while my Gibsons (J185EC, J45Rosewood) were being held hostage. I changed the strings soon enough. Out of the box, the guitar was very nice looking. The rosewood fretboard was very nice also for a guitar this price. With new strings on it, it became very smooth sounding! I recorded a song with it recently, and was asked if it was one of my more expensive guitars, they were surprised when I revealed the recording was of my PR150. Stays in tune very well after the strings were broken in. It is just a guitar that won't let you down for the small investment you have to make.

First impression out of the box is a very nice looking guitar in the black sunburst. The back and sides are very hansome with rich wood grain. The neck is straight and action low, none of the rough fret burs seen on other "cheap" guitars. The neck profile is thicker than my J-45 gibson and D-16GT Martin but still very playable. The tone is good but don't expect it to have the bass of the other guitars mentioned. I think it is an excellent travel or knock around guitar for the office or backyard and you will not be disappionted for the money.
